Same thing I drove around a bit and did not see anyone.

I also tried and head over around 3--but of course saw the road closed. Like the rest, I also tried to find another way in to no avail. I'd certainly be up for a re-schedule.

Hope that none of you ended up driving too far from Jersey...

Anybody headed to South Jersey next weekend?

There is a concourse show, acceleration times, flat tracking, over 4 days. The 24th through the 28th

Here’s your opportunity to really drive your Mercedes-Benz as it was designed to be driven. – Come to the MBCA National Driving Event, Tri-O-Rama 2008 in Millville, NJ, October 24th to 28th. We start with a Concours d’Elegance at the historic Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center on Saturday, follow with Defensive Driving and Autocross on Sunday, and then 2 days at the new, first class Thunderbolt Raceway (http://www.njmotorsportspark.com) for Driver Education with qualified instructors, Acceleration Runs, and Time Trials – all in Millville, NJ. There will also be a Rallye, reception and 2 banquets for award presentations, as well as door prizes and other surprises during this event. For more info go to http://www.sjs-mbca.org/TOR.htm, where you can download a complete registration package.

Next time we should have one designate to collect cell numbers via PM. There was no way to reach anyone when we learned the place was closed at the last minute.

I agree. Luckily for me, I was running late and checked the forum again before I left and saw your post about it being cancelled. So, when is the re-schedule?

Whenever really. I think we should set aside a time that the NJ members can also come as they are a bit far.

I'm in. There is another thread (Feeler for NJ Meet) that is talking about a meet somewhere in NJ. Sounds like they're may be a few, or we could just somehow consolidate the two?
